    Intronic polymorphism of tryptophan hydroxylase and serotonin transporter: indication for combined effect in predisposition to suicide

    Indices of disturbed serotonergic neurotransmission are the most robust biological findings in suicide. Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) and 5-hydroxytryptamine transporter (5HTt) are the main regulators of 5HT si...

    Dopamine D2S and D2L receptors may differentially contribute to the actions of antipsychotic and psychotic agents in mice

    Regulation of dopamine D2 receptor (D2) function plays an important role in alleviating either the motor deficits of Parkinson's disease or psychotic symptoms of schizophrenia. D2 also plays a critical role in...

    Serotonin transporter gene and schizophrenia: evidence for association/linkage disequilibrium in families with affected siblings

    The serotonergic (5-HT) system has been implicated in the etiopathogenesis of psychoses. Since the 5-HT transporter plays an important role in regulation of 5-HT transmission, its gene can be considered as a c...

    Identification of serotonin transporter mRNA in rat platelets

    Total RNA was isolated from rat platelets by guanidinium — acid —phenol extraction, and mRNA for the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) transporter (5HTt) was identified. From a typical starting sample of 20mL of...
